Packages allow you to utilize GitLab as a private repository for a variety of common package managers, as well as GitLab’s generic package registry.

package = project.packages.get(1)

Delete a package from a project:

package.delete()
# or
project.packages.delete(package.id)

Generic Packages

You can use python-gitlab to upload and download generic packages.

Reference

Examples

Upload a generic package to a project:

project = gl.projects.get(1, lazy=True)
package = project.generic_packages.upload(
    package_name="hello-world",
    package_version="v1.0.0",
    file_name="hello.tar.gz",
    path="/path/to/local/hello.tar.gz"
)

Download a project’s generic package:

project = gl.projects.get(1, lazy=True)
package = project.generic_packages.download(
    package_name="hello-world",
    package_version="v1.0.0",
    file_name="hello.tar.gz",
)

Hint

You can use the Packages API described above to find packages and retrieve the metadata you need download them.
